In a meeting presided by Governor Carlito S. Marquez, it was a consensus that Tambak Bridge, Tambak, New Washington, Aklan will be rebuilt and dredged.
The meeting was held in the conference room, Roberto Garcia Memorial Building last Friday, August 3. Representatives from concerned government agencies like Mr. Mae Guangco – BFAR, Aklan, Engr. Ruperto Tabuena of DPWH, Kalibo, Mr. Delano Tefora – Provincial Agriculturist, Engr. Rentillo and Mr. Nestor Mejia, Mr. Rome and Dr. Ambrosio R. Villorente of Provincial Agricultural and Fishery Council (PAFC) attended the said meeting.
The meeting agreed that the style of construction of Tambak bridge has been impeding the entrance of sea water during high tide and the exit of water during low tide. As a result, it has worsen water pollution in several barangays of New Washington. Moreover, the proliferation of the constructions of fishpens in Lagatik and other rivers in New Washington might endanger fishfarms as fishkills may take place if pollution is not mitigated.
Furthermore, flash foods occur during heavy rains. Governor Marquez has requested the DPWH Kalibo to locate the original plan of Tambak bridge to be used as reference in the redesigning of Tambak bridge.
